Marked - Discussion/Update Thread

Marked

 

Marked is a story about individuals who have been born with a power that sets them apart. The reason behind these abilities, how they came to be and why these individuals have them, will be made known, but the answers might not be easy.

 

Man, I suck at summeries. Sorry about that. Anyway Christmas, October 4 came early this year. I got the first chapter done, got it posted on another site and it's all ready to go. Feel free to browse around and everything. I have character bios up for everyoone, except two that I need to finish yet, and if you're curious about when your character/s will show up it will be in there.

 

I'll post the link to the first chapter, as well as cast list, in the next post.

Did you ever look at a picture of yourself and see a stranger in the background? Makes you wonder how many strangers have a picture of you.

:smileyvery-happy: These crazy kids and their disrupting classes.
I enjoy Nick and his sarcasm and attitude.
Wonder if Marcus really was faking it or not. He seems like maybe he wasn't but why would he say he was?
Aww, poor Mafia indeed. Get some balls and tell her how you feel, guy!
:smileyvery-happy: Poor Jenny too.
Chris loev cows?
Chris indeed loev cows. I like her, even though she's a little... crazy.
D'awww Mafia's family seems cute. Also I like all the little details about the character's lives that we're getting tossed in the conversations. Oooo, arsons. Perhaps related to whoever is the weilder of fire-powahs?
And further affirming my suspicions, there's definitely some interesting stuff going on in the last bit there.



Ohmygodthiswasawesomeiloveditnextchaptersoonplz.

 

EDIT: BY THE BY, I really enjoy this here site ya got set up for this. And have totally been clicking around it for the past half an hour.

I like him. He says "okie dokie".

I'm glad you like it! I rather enjoyed writing Nick, he's fun :smileyvery-happy: Actually everyone was fun to write.

Yea, Chris comes off a little crazy, but it's only because she loves cows so much.

I have the next chapter slated for the 4th but I might be able to get it done sooner.

Again, I'm really glad you like it!

 

Edit: Glad you like the site. Sense told me about it and I went with it. It actually allows me to do more than just posting the chapter on fictionpress or something.

 

Thanks Sense!

Interesting little chapter.

For the most part everything seems so peaceful, though I am sure that will not last long.

Can not wait for the next chapter, already looks like it will be rather fun.

yay, early Christmas Oct 4th :smileyvery-happy:

i will attempt to contain my excitement enough to leave some meaningful coherent comments :smileyvery-happy:

 

i really felt bad for Nick, he was just trying to help and he got hung out to dry

Chris is completely crazy, in an awesome way - and Nick totally won, and that made me feel a lot better for him :smileyhappy:

Mafia the generous cookie thief heh

and i don't know why but somehow i find the girl using pushpins on the map to be incredibly hilarious


all in all, a fairly awesome chapter Bad_Witch, i'll be looking forward to the next

(as well as specifically looking forward to chapter 8, understandably heh)

It wasn't your imagination >.>

 

I'm glad you liked it, and your characters. Yea, Mafia's family is cute like that. There jsut isn't enough good solid families out there anymore :smileysad:

 

Oh...and Alice said "They're awakening" slightly different meaning.

I'll have to watch for that next time. Allow more time for editing before I post.

 

I'm working on it. So far I should have it done on the 4th.

Well, it ended up being the day after, but thank you for your patience everyone :smileyhappy: I only gave it the once over, so I'll probably finish editing sometime tomorrow, but since I kept everyone waiting almost three days already I went ahead and posted it.

 

Chapter 2

 

Just ignore any pesky spelling errors and such >.>

Ooooo, interesting start of the chapter.
Brie is way too cute. :smileyvery-happy:
Oooo, new characters!
Pff, that Nick.
XD The ass conversation, oh lord.
Huh, so Mafia and Jenny are sort of legally related?
Oooooo spies over at the other house.
I bet they're going to try and recruit Mafia.

Great stuff! Can't wait for the next one.

Mafia and Jenny are cousins, his mom and her mom are/were sisters. Jenny's mom died when she was in first grade, and daddy's only been married to Helen for about 4 months after meeting on a two week cruise and getting married on the boat, so Jenny has a few issues there. She would have prefered the stupid t-shirt. I'm glad you like it :smileyhappy:

 

Also, I forgot to post the cast list, so here it is...

another great chapter Bad_Witch!  i have to keep reminding myself the story is going to be 100 chapters to stop being anxious about the suspense heh

 

i think Nick is actually my favorite character right now, even as a side character - major points to you and Ciddy there

of course i like all the other characters too so far, they have some really nice interactions going on

 

and also interestingly, new neighbors...  if Alice starts refusing to eat carrots though we may have a situation here heh
but i wonder which "side" they're on... since Alice's friend was implicated as the arsonist... and what their inclination towards Mafia is... too suspenseful! :smileyvery-happy:

Ch.1: Sorry Im just getting to this. I'm like never on here anymore. Anyway, looks like a nice slice of life so far up until the talk of arson starts popping up. Mafia and Nick both seemed like jackasses at first but it looks like theres a softer side to both of them. Wonder what's with Alice.

 

 

I'll try to get Chapter 2 read soon.

Thank you. I'm glad you liked it and yeah, it's going to be 100 chapters so you might have to wait for things to be revealed, some longer than others. As for which side, you should have a really good idea sooner rather than later.

 

@ Deacon: No worries. I'm still falling behind in stories. Get caught up, fall behind seems to be my thing anymore :smileyvery-happy: :smileysad: I'm glad you liked it. This isn't really going to be a slice of life, even if it seems that way now, or a rom/com. It will most likely have many different genre's thown in, mainly because I'm not writing it to stay in any particular genre, but it is going to have a good bit of action. How else can I kill of most of the cast :smileyvery-happy:

True I could do that but that wouldn't be nearly as fun as stabbings, vortexes, burning alive or what ever my demented mind can come up with. Like decapitation >.>

 

You'll just have to wait an see :smileywink:

 

I am hoping to have a new chapter out next week. I'm not sure what day yet, but it should be next week sometime.
